WinDbg Workspace
|
| |
Under Vista, is there any way to get a saved workspace to actually save the workspace that I'm currently using, without rearranging it and adding ever-increasing empty space around each window? Every time I restart, or save and load a workspace, it adds more and more blank space around the floating windows, shrinking them smaller and smaller until they're gone.... more »

Process just disappears on Access Violation; no crash dump produced
|
| |
I have a problem with a production system in that some of its processes recently experience a software error leading to a crash. In production machines, I have setup Dr. Watson to catch a crash dump file for post-mortem analysis. The problem is that I observe recently that despite Dr. Watson being correctly registered as JIT debugger... more »

Creating a debug heap when not in debugger?
|
| |
I know that when I start my app under windbg, the process heap is created with HEAP_TAIL_CHECKING_ENABLED, etc. I'd like to turn that on *outside* of windbg. I've tried using gflags to turn on "heap tail checking" (and every other kind of checking) for my image, but it seems those flags are utterly ignored if not... more »

On the [link] page there are no separate symbols for 2003R2/SP2 server (X64), so I loaded the symbols for 2003 sp2 x64. I still can not load a dump file, I get Symbol file could not be found for ntdll.dll. The PDB is in the symbols directory and the path is pointed... more »

How to configure source search path
|
| |
I have a simple question: is it possible to define the source lookup path so that if the debugger tries to find a file '<old_root>\a\b\c\file.cxx' it also tries the path '<some_other_root>\a\b\c\file. cxx'. Currently I have to add a new .srcpath entry whenever I encounter a file which is located in some other file directory.... more »

WinDbg Loop in ADPlus command file
|
| |
When creating a -hang dump from ADPlus I try to format some of the application critical areas so we can get an idea what went wrong without downloading the full dmp file. So I am trying to dump an array of structures (cpp) and I just can't get the syntax correct 0:000> .for ($n=0; $n<g_pTranData->m_nMakeCodes; $n++){ ??... more »

WDFTester with debug on/off
|
| |
Hi, I'm trying to resolve a driver issue with remote kernel debugging. A bugcheck occurs as a result of fault injection (FI) by WDFTester. The platform is Windows 7. The bugcheck does not appear if debug mode has been enabled (bcdedit /debug on) before running WDFTester, though. The method, WdfRequestForwardToIoQueue in my case, that causes the bugcheck is never FI... more »
